Hmm, I've always been curious about how "bad" a not well amped Stax would sound. I mean I understand that they need good amps to reach their potential, but how big is this gap? I think it would be kind of interesting to see Stax out of a, for example, SRM252 and see how that goes >.

Might be unrelated... but I'm wavering between the choice a 007 and a W3000ANV.
I know they're considered two different beasts, but I was wondering what the opinion is on this thread as it has been brought up a bit on the W3000 thread.

Just a question that's bugging me.
Most headphones are colored to a certain degree. But when you're, for example, editing mixing tuning mastering audio, you probably don't want too much color right?
So then, what would be the "ideal" studio monitor? I mean for us, since we are the listeners, we can choose as much or as little coloring as we want. But for those who produce music, they have to consider what they hear out of their headphones, but also other people's...
